Its durable IP64-rated aluminum housing and MIL-STD-810H certification make it well-suited for outdoor and industrial environments such as NEMA enclosures, utility poles, cabinets, and transit systems. The dual-Ethernet variant features two Ethernet ports (1 Gbps + 5 Gbps), along with a quad-core ARM A53 processor, 1.2 GB of RAM, USB-C port with 45W power input and 5 Gbps LAN capability, 2x2 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi 6, and dual-band GNSS. It also includes dual nano SIM slots (4FF) for carrier failover, and is fully managed through AirLink OS and the AirLink Management Service (ALMS) for remote monitoring, Docker container support, and zero-touch provisioning. Key Features Connectivity & Network Support Supports CBRS Band 48 and Sub-6 GHz 5G/LTE bands including n48, n77, and n78. Dual nano SIM slots with automatic failover and policy-based routing. Dual Ethernet ports (1 Gbps + 5 Gbps) for wired redundancy or high-throughput backhaul. Wi-Fi 6 (2x2 MU-MIMO): Up to 32 clients, dual-band AP and client modes, peak throughput 1.2 Gbps. WPA2/3 Personal, Enterprise, and Transitional security modes. Compact Rugged Design The AirLink® XR60 is IP64-rated and engineered for industrial and mobile applications. It supports operating temperatures from -40°F to 167°F (-30°C to +75°C for Wi-Fi variants), and is certified for Class 1 Div 2 hazardous locations, railway standards (EN50155), and vehicle electrical environments (ISO7637-2, E-Mark). The router measures at 4.6 x 3.9 x 1.5 inches and weighting approximately 1.15 lbs. It also includes a redundant USB-C power input to prevent downtime. Performance & Edge Compute The AirLink® XR60 delivers up to 2.8 Gbps downlink and 900 Mbps uplink over 5G networks, ensuring high-speed connectivity for data-intensive applications. It is powered by a 64-bit quad-core ARM A53 processor with 1.2 GB of RAM and 750 MB of flash storage, providing reliable performance for both routing and edge processing tasks. Built-in support for Docker containers (via ALMS licensing) allows organizations to run edge applications, analytics, or custom workloads directly on the device. The AirLink® XR60 achieves firewall throughput up to 800 Mbps and supports IPsec VPN tunnels at speeds up to 175 Mbps, with the ability to manage up to 10 simultaneous VPN connections. With FIPS 140-2 compliance and support for both full and split tunneling, the AirLink® XR60 offers enterprise-grade security suitable for sensitive deployments. Management & Configuration AirLink® The AirLink® XR60 runs on AirLink® OS, providing an intuitive, secure platform for device configuration and monitoring. Each unit includes a 1-year subscription to AirLink® Complete, which offers access to the AirLink® Management Service (ALMS), firmware and security updates, and technical support. Optional upgrade to AirLink® Premium, which adds enhanced analytics and same-day hardware replacement coverage. With Hybrid Cloud capabilities, the AirLink® XR60 can be managed through centralized cloud tools while still offering on-premise control for organizations with stricter IT requirements. The platform supports zero-touch provisioning, making it easy to deploy at scale without requiring manual setup in the field. Connectivity Requirements To operate the AirLink® XR60 on CBRS or cellular networks, you’ll need: SIM Card:Two nano SIMs (4FF) provisioned for use on a CBRS network or supported public carrier such as AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Southern Linc, or FirstNet Trusted. Dual-SIM failover and policy-based routing are supported. The device supports dual-SIM failover and policy-based routing, allowing it to switch seamlessly between networks to maintain continuous uptime License or Subscription:All AirLink® XR60 units include a 1-year AirLink Complete subscription. Continued access to ALMS management, firmware updates, and extended hardware support beyond the first year requires an active subscription. AirLink® Premium is optional and provides enhanced analytics and advance replacement coverage. Deployment Support:Deploying ultra-compact CBRS-capable routers involves careful planning — from SIM provisioning and antenna selection to edge container setup and remote configuration. Whether the AirLink® XR60 is being used in a smart pole or a fleet vehicle, our team can help ensure successful deployment and long-term operability. Reach out here to get started. Add the OmniRoam Mobile Antenna When the AirLink® XR60 cannot achieve reliable connectivity and needs improved signal placement, or an external antenna solution that avoids mounting multiple antennas, the OmniRoam 7-in-1 Low-Profile Mobile Antenna is an effective companion. It combines 4×4 cellular MIMO, 2×2 Wi-Fi, and GPS/GNSS in a single, weather-resistant and compact enclosure designed for vehicle and fixed infrastructure installations. Its low-profile design and versatile mounting options - magnetic, adhesive, or spigot - simplifies installation for fleet vehicles, transit systems, mobile command setups, and outdoor cabinets. It delivers reliable performance even on non-metallic surfaces such as fiberglass or composite roofs, while modular and extendable cables support flexible routing to routers installed inside vehicles or enclosures. This bundle provides a practical, ready-to-deploy option as a single router-and-antenna solution without needing to source or integrate separate components.
